Task

Your task is to complete the following:

Make sure you have gone through all the different pages and discovered all the different hotspots with their extra information.

Then have a go at the Quiz! Note down how many tries you needed to complete the two levels.

Then complete one of the following tasks set out below.

TASK 1

Write your own account of St.Augustine meeting King Ethelbert and his Queen Bertha.

The story should be written as if you are St.Augustine and you are writing in your diary.

Find the sources (in the history section) describing what Ethelbert said to Augustine at their first meeting.

Imagine what it must have been like, Augustine and his 40 monks meeting the King of Kent. What emotions were going through Augustine, before and after the meeting?

Are you happy with the outcome of the meeting? What else did you want to happen?

What are you going to do next to make sure you carry out Pope Gregory's orders?

TASK 2

You are a reporter on the local Kent newspaper and your job is to write 3 articles (1 main and 2 small articles) about St.Augustine. These should be set out on the front page of the Newspaper.

Each story should have an original headline. You need to design your Newspaper front cover - what are you going to call your paper?

Then you need to choose 3 stories from the following below :

�Augustine converts 10,000 Anglo-Saxons to
Christianity on Christmas day
�Ethelbert meets Augustine for talks
�Bertha the Christian Queen
�Gregory sends Augustine to Britain
�Who is this Augustine?

If you can think of any other article you want to write, talk to your teacher first.
